A Welcome from the Program Director:

Dear Family Medicine Resident:

Thank you for your interest in Arnot Health’s Family Medicine Residency Program! Our 24 resident program has been successfully training and preparing Family Medicine residents in the picturesque Southern Tier of Upstate New York for over a decade. Over the years we have continued to help our local community through full-scope practice, especially to those who are underserved. As an alumnus of the program, it is my pleasure to review the benefits of completing the next step in your medical career with us.

The residents training at our institution have a fantastic and congenial working relationship with the local medical students from Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine’s Elmira campus, the residents and fellows from other in-house specialties, and their physician faculty members. The positive atmosphere and the level of camaraderie of our Family Medicine residency program is probably the largest single reason I stayed where I completed my training.

Our Family Medicine Program allows for two rural track continuity clinic residents per year to work with our affiliates at Keuka Family Practice in Bath, NY, while the majority of our residents will work in a more traditional suburban training location at Eastside Family Practice in Elmira, NY. Either of these clinic pathways will allow you to simultaneously complete a more concentrated study in areas of interest, what we call Specialty Tracks. Please feel free to reach out to inquire for more information.

Upstate New York’s Chemung and Steuben counties, collectively called the Southern Tier, comprises of a unique blend of rural opportunities and suburban amenities. The Finger Lakes are home to some of the most desirable wines in the country, and the nature trails and falls throughout Ithica and Watkins Glen in the autumn offer unparalleled beauty. As I often discuss during interviews, if you pick a cardinal direction from Elmira, you will hit a major Northeastern city within a short daytrip if desired, from Buffalo and Rochester to Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and New York City itself.

We look forward to meeting you and discussing how good of a fit training at Arnot Health’s Family Medicine Residency may be for you.

Lewis Cabibi, D.O.
